What do you like best about your major?
I love how versatile CM is in terms of course work and future career field. I genuinely had no idea where I would end up in the workforce before coming to Tech, but I soon found my interest in UI/UX after only half a year in CM. I am beyond grateful for the amount of support I've received from both faculty and friends, and I really appreciate how tight-knit the CM community is at Tech. Getting to work alongside so many passionate, talented people is nothing less than inspiring, and I love how the program is structured where you are expected to both program and design to a high level.
What do you love about liberal arts at Georgia Tech?
Liberal arts at Tech is a unique experience since there is still that emphasis and focus on technology despite what you choose to study. The programs offered are also always changing and evolving to keep up to speed with the tech of the world. Not to mention, liberal arts classes are typically smaller in size, so you get a chance to meet and become friends with a lot of people interested in the same topics and areas of study as you.
I'm always excited to welcome new CM majors to the school! I love this major, and I hope you'll come to love it too.
